Na década de 1950, Florianópolis foi marcada por uma política modernizadora. Por um lado, tal ideal buscava equiparar economicamente a capital do Estado de Santa Catarina ao restante do Brasil. Por outro lado, as autoridades locais pretendiam desenvolver a região de Florianópolis, atrasada economicamente em comparação com outras regiões do estado. Durante as décadas seguintes, tal processo modificou drasticamente a organização social da Ilha, tanto nas áreas urbanas como nas áreas rurais. Franklin Cascaes iniciou suas pesquisas neste contexto, buscando organizar fidedignamente a memória coletiva dos antigos moradores das freguesias pesqueiras. Mas Cascaes não omite em sua produção plástica as transformações ocorridas na Ilha: tanto os desenhos quanto as narrações sobre bruxas, além de representarem a experiência tradicional dos antigos narradores da Ilha, problematizam o processo de modernização da cidade. In the 50', Florianópolis was outstanding by a policy of modernization. In the side, such idea search to equate economically to the capital of the state of Santa Catarina to the rest of Brazil. In another side the local authorities to develop the region of Florianópolis economically diphase compare with the others regions from the state. During the next decades such process change drastically the social organization of the island, even in urban areas as in the rural areas. Franklin Cascaes started his researches on this context, he was trying to organize trustworthily the role memories of the old neighbors from the fishing customers. But Cascaes doesn't omit in his productions the transformations occurred in the island: even the draws as the narratives about witches beside the representative the traditional experience from the old neighbors from the island, increase the problem the modern city's process.

Abstract:
El Proyecto contempla el diseño de la Estación de Combinación Franklin entre las Líneas 2 y 6 realizando modificaciones a la estación existente, creando una relación espacial y funcional entre ambas estaciones. En su totalidad, la propuesta considera la integración de ambos edificios por medio de un nivel subterráneo correspondiente al nivel -6,9m. (Mesanina) de la estación existente, el cual permitirá establecer circulaciones peatonales que relacionen el espacio urbano existente en superficie con los programas propios de esta nueva estación de combinación. De esta forma, la nueva conformación del espacio público y privado en superficie, junto a las futuras intervenciones de infraestructura vial, hidráulica y de áreas verdes establecerá nuevos flujos vehiculares y peatonales, donde este proyecto buscará establecer conexiones de manera superficial y subterránea permitiendo la continuidad de las diferentes infraestructuras, equipamientos y áreas verdes del sector. Este nivel de interconexión se denomina Plataforma Comercial-Intermodal Subterránea ya que permite relacionar los flujos peatonales generados por las nuevas infraestructuras de transporte, con las actividades comerciales y recreacionales de manera soterrada.

Abstract:
This formative evaluation of Franklin School was shaped around the implicit and explicit goals of the school and those school practices that are recognized as being effective in schools for students at-risk of dropping out of school. The study served four purposes: (1) to determine how the teachers, parents, and students viewed the school and their experiences with it, (2) to determine what program improvements were needed, (3) to provide a baseline for future evaluations, and (4) to activate the collection of data needed for future evaluations. The participants in the study included the six teachers, 52 students, and the parents or guardians of the students who attended Franklin School during the 1996-97 school year, the year which was the focus of the study. I collected data from the participants through surveys, interviews with teachers and a carefully drawn sample of students and parents, and meetings with teachers and students. Additionally, I analyzed student records pertaining to referrals, attendance, academic achievement, disciplinary infractions, and dropouts. Data from the study indicated that some school goals were being met adequately, and some were not. Teachers, students, and parents agreed that goals related to self-esteem efforts, sense of community, and safe environment were being met. However, the findings from the study indicated that improvement was needed in the areas of career education, counseling, discipline, staff development, parent involvement, and use of instructional technology. Also, the study yielded three important findings in addition to findings related to school goals that need to be addressed. First, there is a leadership problem at Franklin School that needs to be resolved. Second, limited data available on attendance and academic achievement suggested that over time student performance declines at the school. Finally, the data on the referrals to Franklin School revealed an exceedingly high rejection rate with no written notices of admission decisions and no follow-up of students rejected. The findings from the study strongly suggest the need for continued evaluation of the school and for putting mechanisms in place to collect the data needed for such evaluations.

Full text
Abstract:
Summer, 1762. England and Prussia are at war with France and Spain. There are fronts in Europe and the colonies in Africa, North America, and the Caribbean. On the southern coast of England, Dr Benjamin Franklin is about to return home to Philadelphia. He is 56 years old, a retired printer, a published scientist, but at London he is better recognised as a low-born statesman from Pennsylvania with a reputation for causing trouble with the establishment. His mission was as simple as it was outrageous: oust Penn’s sons from their inherited rule and transfer the colony’s governance to the Crown. He has been wildly unsuccessful. In five years he’s done little more than to strengthen his enemies, multiply his own vulnerabilities, and nearly bankrupt his employers. But despite these professional failures he has discovered the metropolis to be extremely suited to his moral, cultural, and philosophical interests – and to his infinite ambition. It’s almost three decades since his first attempts at Philadelphia to nurture the local citizenry out of ignorance, superstition, low morals. In England he has discovered a country where, to his delight, there are ‘in every neighbourhood more sensible, virtuous and elegant minds than we can collect in ranging a hundred leagues of our vast forests’. When he sets sail, half-reluctantly, it is with the promise to cross over again as soon as he can … and if he can convince his wife to make the dangerous voyage … to settle in London forever. I interpret this moment as a turning point for Franklin, a final attempt against increasing personal and political friction to realise his elusive dream of uniting in one place his family, his career, and the activities that lent meaning to his life. The three chapters bound here comprise the first half of that story. At Philadelphia he would meet with a horrorshow: deadly fever, failed harvests, reports of vicious murders on the western frontier, a terrorist insurgency amassing on the outskirts of Philadelphia, the ruthless partisanship of Pennsylvania politics. The next two years – 1762 to 1764 – contained an almost brutal panorama of colonial American life. The contrast to the stability and intelligent bustle of London was as stark as it was dispiriting, and Franklin’s letters reveal how near the edge of the world he felt himself to be during this time. How would Poor Richard fare, haunted by a sense of futility and the inescapable reality of isolation? Here I have pursued Franklin in the midst of the culture and intrigue of his Georgian London, through the storms and progress of his colonial Philadelphia. It seems as though he understood these cities to be not just landscapes of sights and sounds and smells, some more wonderful and magnificent than others – not just sets, but actors, too. It was the talking, thinking element that could finally evoke for him two ways of being, scenes and stages and indeed whole theatres upon which one’s interests and insecurities might be shaped and his ambition played out. And as such, two places could evoke for Franklin two different dimensions of himself, a distinction so profound that in a moment rich with finality he even named them: Reason (America), and Inclination (London). This Franklin, unable to quite reconcile these twin spirits, is not the man whom I have encountered in prior portraits. He is more agitated, more conflicted, hypochondriac, and sometimes almost paranoid. He is a great reader, but sometimes not a careful one. He is given to escape into endless experiments with an ever-larger scientific apparatus. He is a frugal tinkerer, a playful refiner, a conjurer of agreeable little shocks. He is susceptible to fits of intensity and melancholy, to spells of vindictiveness, and to sustained, probably displaced antagonism towards the authority of the Church. He could never quite accommodate that far-flung American stage. And after five years in London, he was even less able to readjust to what became for him a set of confinements – intellectual, material, spiritual, and social. II So I have come to believe that the pivot of Franklin’s life, the essential tension, is expressed in the continual self-enhancement that led him back into London society. Partly because it was also expressed in the two versions of his memoirs that tension has come to frame, under different guises, Dr Franklin’s afterlife. To erase it, or resolve it, as many biographers have attempted to do, and therefore to claim Franklin for one side of the water or the other, is no way to recover his experience. Biographers must consider carefully the nature of a record so charged with national identity as Franklin’s in its preservation, presentation, and editorial interpretation. The Prologue, in tracing early Franklin life-writing and the publication of his memoirs, exposes and explores some of these problems. I wrote the Prologue – ‘The Life of the Life of Dr Franklin’ – not so much as an introduction to the biographical chapters but rather as a companion or parallel commentary to them. Its creative footing owes a good deal to such modern/historical split narratives as those by Dava Sobel (Longitude) and Josephine Tey (The Daughter of Time), and also to some of the ideas of self and memory explored in the stories of Jorge Luis Borges. The setting is a time in the not very distant future, when the United States, as a nation, is become so removed from the pretended innocence of its original ideals that the mythologies surrounding its foundation and its so-called Founding Fathers are no longer the darlings of biographers but rather curiosities for the amusement of antiquarians. Such are the protagonists, two men neither young nor old corresponding across the Atlantic, each possessed of the right amount of time and eccentricity for making enquiries of a bygone age. Indeed, the two voices, though opposed in some ways (Cladentweed the donnish foil to the footstepper’s stumbling independence), both appear to call out to the past – or even from it. The reader whom the Prologue will benefit most will be familiar with Franklin’s autobiography and the correspondence he inserted into it. Dr Farrand’s introduction to the Parallel Text edition, cited early on in the footnotes, and also Henry Stevens’s history of the lost holograph of the autobiography are especially helpful in tracing its journey into and out of obscurity. Both pieces of scholarship provide a remedial dose for the misconception of the historical record as a set of involuntary footprints, a lucky trail left by the human passage through a natural forest of events. A third source, informative (with reservations) and rewarding in its own way, is the account by John Bigelow – the U. S. minister to France under Lincoln – of locating and editing the lost holograph in the years just following the American civil war. It was when reading Bigelow’s memoirs that I wondered how he had come to the conclusion that the draft he possessed was more authentic than the text published by Temple Franklin in 1817 – in short, that the differences he found between holograph and printed edition were to be put down to Temple himself, and not to a later, lost draft made by Franklin. Two copies of the holograph are known (and were then known) to have been made. And Franklin’s letters confirm that the copies were made under his personal instruction. (These letters were also published well before 1866, in numerous editions.) If the changes attributed to Temple were found to be present in the copies, it would almost certainly indicate that Franklin was aware of them, that Bigelow’s ‘Bohemian’ ‘mutilations’ were nothing more offensive than Franklin’s own corrections: his turns of phrase become less colloquial and his grammar more syntactic in the twenty years between first and second drafts. But neither copy has been found.
(Why not? Where are they? One was almost certainly destroyed at the print house. I tracked the other as far as rural Maine, but there the scent is lost.) Lacking one of these copies, it is impossible to know for certain just what Temple Franklin changed or did not change.

Full text
Abstract:
This dissertation uses long-neglected or forgotten speeches and articles by Franklin D. Roosevelt in his pre-presidential life to provide a new and comprehensive narrative of his internationalist thinking as it developed to 1933. Its three parts cover FDR’s life chronologically. The first part describes the impact of his background and upbringing in the period 1882 to 1917. It examines the influence of key individuals such as Theodore Roosevelt, Alfred Thayer Mahan and Woodrow Wilson. The second part covers the years 1917 to 1920 and includes FDR’s experiences during World War I, the fight for the League of Nations and the presidential campaign of 1920. It was in this period that he developed new and lasting ideological positions in the debates on his country’s political, military, economic and moral connections to the rest of the world. The third part covers the years 1921 to 1933. Although this period saw no important new thinking, international problems, Democratic Party divisions and an apparently successful Republican foreign policy during the 1920s forced FDR to develop important communication strategies for his internationalism. In conclusion the study argues that FDR took a well developed internationalist worldview to the White House in 1933 and that knowledge of this is useful for tracing the subsequent development of his outlook.

Full text
Abstract:
Nodal sections of the winter-hardy 'John Franklin' rose cultivar from field-grown plants were cultured on a modified Murashige and Skoog (MS) nutrient medium. Very high levels of contamination from the surface of the initial sections required that plants be grown under greenhouse conditions. Rose plantlets obtained from subsequent subcultures were used for the first time in a radiotracer experiment with $ sp{32}$P to study the kinetics of phosphorus (P) uptake as a function of temperature of the nutrient medium. P uptake increased with time for rooted and non-rooted plantlets in a linear fashion that did not reach an equilibrium value even after 96 hours of exposure. An analysis of variance revealed that the plantlets with roots absorbed significantly greater amounts of P at the 0.01 level compared with non-rooted plantlets at 22$ sp circ$C. P uptake was significantly higher at the 0.05 level, for rooted versus non-rooted plantlets at 33$ sp circ$C. There was no significant difference in P uptake by rooted and non-rooted plantlets at 3$ sp circ$C. Interaction between time of exposures and rooting was found to be significant at 22$ sp circ$C and 33$ sp circ$C at the 0.01 level. The results indicated that the root system, previously thought to be inefficient in the nutrient absorption, played a key role in absorbing P from the nutrient medium at optimum temperature.

Taking into account that researchers who study Franklin Cascaes work and life dissociate the artist from the professor, I have chosen his life trajectory, as an artist and as a professor, the object of analysis. The importance of such choice lies on the fact that his work as an artist/professor is almost unexplored in the academic literature, especially, from the point of view of his lack of traditional formal education. So, the aim was to show that there was a Franklin before and after his own autobiographical narratives, where he portrays himself as an outsider. Thus, the research was carried out through the examination of his academic works, autobiographical fragments, notes on his academic daily life, letters sent to journalists and politicians, interviews, photos, magazines, as well as his drawings, sculptures, and stories. All of these documents have provided hints of who Franklin Joaquim Cascaes was. This thesis departs from the common principle of the Elisian studies about the relationship between the individual and the society (especially in the case of Mozart, which prompted Nobert Elias to observe the possible forms of relationship, while studying the man), in order to understand Franklin Cascaes within the limits and possibilities of his own time. The opposition between the concepts of outsider and established were crucial in the analysis of Franklin s trajectory. These concepts are seen within an approach that embraces him as a deviant artist and professor. Thus, this work is divided into three sections, which one aiming at answering the following working question: how social tensions work on individual trajectories? In the first section, that covers Franklin s trajectory up to 1948, I analyses different factors in the experience of the man that have contributed to the construction of his mission: to keep up the culture of the inhabitants of the Isle of Santa Catarina. In the second section I try to understand the limits and the possibilities for him to carry out his project, taking 10 into consideration the determinants from the environment over his trajectory. Furthermore, I try to understand the strategies used by Franklin to face the rules and the attitudes that were imposed on him in the Escola Industrial as a professor and as an artist in the city of Florianópolis. In the last part I question how it was possible for the Museum Oswaldo Rodrigues Cabral of Archeology and Ethnology to keep up with Franklin s work of art. I also analyses the creation of other places devotes to his memory. In both cases, I have identified the strategies used for the recognition of the importance of Franklin as a catarinense artist. If the condition of established/outsider illuminates the power relations of a social dimension, defined by values, such as recognition, belonging, and exclusion, in the 1970s Franklin Cascaes begins to participate of spaces in the past open only to those who had an academic degree or a privileged social condition, the established. It is in the local political and social context of those years that the açoriana identity turned into a strategy for the invention of a city , which desired to become a tourist site. In 1977, the researcher and paranaense arts critic, Adalice Maria de Araujo, in her thesis Franklin Cascaes, The Myth of an Island: myth and magic , turned the artist in the big wizard of the island of Santa Catarina. Franklin, appearing frequently at the pages newspapers, especially, the O Jornal, the main local paper, and with the help from the students of the Industrial at the town hall and at the Federal University of Santa Catarina (UFSC), was able to secure the keep up of his works by the Museum Oswaldo Rodrigues Cabral. It is in this atmosphere that Franklin goes from the condition of an outsider to the established one, although, in the following years, in different autobiographic narratives, he had never seen himself as such.
Partindo do pressuposto que ao tratar de Franklin Cascaes os pesquisadores que estudam a sua obra e vida, dissociam o artista do professor, foi eleita a trajetória do professor/artista como objeto de análise, sobretudo porque ela possibilitaria uma trajetória praticamente inexplorada nos trabalhos acadêmicos, sobretudo do ponto de vista de um professor/artista que não teve uma formação escolar tradicional. Objetivou-se, assim, mostrar que existe um Franklin anterior e um posterior as narrativas autobiográficas em que o mesmo busca representar-se como um sujeito outsider. Para isso, estudos acadêmicos, fragmentos autobiográficos, escritas do cotidiano escolar, correspondências enviadas a jornalistas e políticos, entrevistas, fotografias, revistas, bem como os desenhos, esculturas e contos por ele produzidos, foram tomados como documentos-monumento fornecendo indícios de quem foi Franklin Joaquim Cascaes. Parte-se do princípio comum aos estudos Elisianos sobre a relação indivíduo/sociedade, em especial o caso de Mozart, em que Norbert Elias estudando um indivíduo, espreita as formas de relações possíveis, buscando compreendê-lo dentro dos limites e das possiblidades do seu tempo. Os conceitos de outsiders e estabelecidos foram fundamentais na análise da trajetória de Franklin, na abordagem que o acolhe como um professor/artista desviante. O trabalho esta dividido em três partes, objetivando responder a seguinte questão: como as tensões sociais se operam em trajetórias individuais. Na primeira parte que compreende a trajetória de Franklin até 1948, analiso as diferentes experiências do personagem procurando identificar alguns fatores que contribuíram para a construção da sua missão: guardar a cultura dos moradores da Ilha de Santa Catarina. No segundo momento, busco compreender os limites e as possibilidades para a realização do seu projeto, levando em consideração as determinações do meio sobre a sua trajetória. Além disso, busco entender as estratégias utilizadas para Franklin fazer frente às normas e condutas que lhe foram impostas no espaço da Escola Industrial como docente e, na cidade de Florianópolis, como artista. Na última parte, problematizo de que forma foi possível a guarda da obra do professor/artista pelo Museu de Arqueologia e Etnologia Oswaldo Rodrigues Cabral. Problematizo, também, a criação de outros lugares de memória. Nos dois casos busco identificar as estratégias utilizadas para reconhecer a sua importância como artista catarinense. Se a condição de estabelecido/outsider ilumina relações de poder de uma dimensão social definida por valores como reconhecimento, pertencimento e exclusão, então, o professor e artista Franklin Cascaes, nos anos 70, passa a partilhar espaços antes só destinados aos portadores de uma formação acadêmica ou de uma condição social privilegiada, os estabelecidos. É no quadro social e político local, daqueles anos, que a identidade açoriana torna-se uma estratégia para a "invenção de uma cidade" que desejava se fazer turística. Em 1977, a pesquisadora e crítica de arte paranaense Adalice Maria de Araujo, na tese "Franklin Cascaes, o Mito Vivo da Ilha: mito e magia na arte catarinense", transforma o artista no grande bruxo da Ilha de Santa Catarina. Franklin, ocupando com frequência as páginas dos jornais, especialmente o Jornal O Estado, principal periódico local e; contando com o apoio dos alunos da "Industrial" na Prefeitura e na UFSC, consegue a guarda da sua obra pelo Museu de Arqueologia e Etnologia Oswaldo Rodrigues Cabral. É neste contexto, que Franklin passa da condição de outsider à de outsider/estabelecido, embora nos anos seguintes, nas diferentes narrativas autobiográficas ele não se perceba como tal.

Abstract:
The protection zone of the Franklin Rod is widely used in practice due to its effectiveness and the wide usage. The theories are based on the mathematical approaches, regardless of physical inherence of lightning strokes. The study of this thesis is based on computer analysis of the field distribution in pre-breakdown stage, laboratory experiments of various test configurations and mathematical modeling. The impact of the Franklin Rod¡¯s height and the polarity of impulse are considered. New equations are developed to calculate the striking distance to Franklin Rod both under negative and positive polarity lightning strokes. The lightning protection zone of the Franklin Rod can be predicted by a proposed elliptical model. The experimental data coincides to the calculated protection zone by proposed equations. Finally, the dual-rod lightning protection system is studied. The protection zone of the dual-rod protection system can be evaluated by a combination of Rolling Sphere Circular Model and elliptical model.

Abstract:
Tiivistelmä. Sir John Franklin oli arktinen tutkimusmatkailija, joka teki elämäntyönsä etsien Luoteisväylää. Viimeiselle matkalleen Franklin lähti vuonna 1845. Hän oli kapteenina retkikunnassa, joka tuli tunnetuksi yhtenä pahimpana katastrofina brittiläisessä tutkimusmatkailussa. Franklin ja hänen retkikuntansa katosivat, eikä useista pelastusretkikunnista huolimatta heidän kohtaloaan pystytty selvittämään. Kadottuaan Franklin sai maineen viktoriaanisena sankarina, joka oli uhrannut kaiken kotimaansa ja tieteen edistämisen puolesta. Tässä tutkimuksessa tutkin viktoriaanista sankarikuvaa tarkastelemalla 1800-luvun puolen välin arktisten tutkimusmatkailijoiden kirjoituksia Franklinista. Tutkimuskysymykseni on jaettavissa kahteen osioon. Näistä ensimmäinen on, miten Franklin esitettiin arktisten tutkimusmatkailijoiden matkakirjoissa, sekä millaisen käsityksen tutkimusmatkailijat halusivat antaa hänestä. Toinen tutkimuskysymykseni on, miten Franklinin etsintöjä perusteltiin arktisissa matkateoksissa. Molempien tutkimuskysymysten suhteen tarkastelen, esiintyikö eri kirjoittajien välillä eroja, sekä olisiko esimerkiksi ajan kulumisella, kirjoittajien kansallisuudella tai Franklinin vaimolla, lady Jane Franklinilla, vaikutusta siihen, miten Franklinista kirjoitettiin. Lähteenäni tutkimuksessani käytän 1800-luvun puolessa välissä ilmestyneitä arktisia matkakirjoja, eli narratiiveja. Tutkimukseeni valitsin matkakirjat kuudelta eri tutkimusmatkailijalta, jotka ovat William P. Snow, William Kennedy, John Rae, Joseph-Réne Bellot, Elisha K. Kane ja Leopold McClintock. Heidän teoksiaan yhdistää se, että ne julkaistiin vuosien 1851–1859 välillä, ja että niiden kirjoittajat olivat osana Franklinia etsineitä retkikuntia. Arktiset matkakirjat olivat yleisimmin kuvauksia siitä, mitä tapahtui niiden kirjoittajien ollessa tutkimassa arktisia alueita. Tutkimukseni hyödyntää laadullista menetelmää, sillä tarkastelen näissä matkateoksissa ilmeneviä teemoja liittyen Frankliniin ja hänen etsimiseensä. Matkakirjoista ilmenee, että Franklin pyrittiin esittämään viktoriaaniselle ajalle tyypillisenä herrasmiehenä. Tosin Raen kirjoitukset poikkesivat joissakin kohdissa huomattavasti muiden kirjoituksista. Mikäli tutkimusmatkailijoiden täytyi kritisoida Franklinia, kyseinen kritiikki esitettiin yleisimmin Franklinista ulkopuolisiin tekijöihin. Lady Franklinin vaikutus aviomiehensä sankarikuvaan näkyi erityisen voimakkaasti, sillä Franklinia usein kehuttiin lady Franklinin kautta. Päällimmäisinä syinä, minkä takia pelastusretkikuntia haluttiin lähettää, näyttäisi olevan Franklinin retkikunnan tilanteen helpottaminen. Pelastusretkikunnilla ei vaikuttanut olevan suurta huolta Franklinin selviämisestä, vaan kyse oli hänen tilanteensa helpottamisesta ja lady Franklinin huolen lopettamisesta. Syitä, jotka voisivat saada tutkimusmatkailijat vaikuttamaan itsekkäiltä, vältettiin. Myös poliittisia tai kansallista etua näyttäviä syitä pyritään suurimmalta osalta välttämään. Tutkielmani on antanut uutta tietoa arktisen tutkimusmatkailun tutkimukseen. Vaikka Franklinia itsessään on tutkittu kohtuullisesti, häntä ei ole kuitenkaan juuri tutkittu toisten arktisten tutkimusmatkailijoiden kirjoitusten kautta. Aihetta olisi mahdollista tutkia laajemmin tarkastelemalla arktisten sankareiden esittämistapoja tai Franklinin pelastusretkikuntien syitä esimerkiksi sanomalehtijulkaisujen kautta.

Abstract:
An unbalanced relationship currently exists between man and nature. However, humans are beginning to realize if this uneven relationship continues, it will mean the ultimate demise our world as we know it. This investigation seeks to produce architecture which is in balance with nature. To do this the architecture must act as a living system in diverse ecological environments. If architecture can organize as a living system it will no longer exist as an object on the landscape, rather the architecture will be experienced as an interrelated process essential to the functioning whole. When natural living processes and cultural and social processes combine, a truly environmental architecture may arise. To explore the idea of environmental architecture, a project is proposed as testing grounds. The Midway Thermal Laboratory and Interpretive Center is this project. The site is the Midway Geyser Basin of Yellowstone National Park, WY. The results have produced architecture which is both interactive and responsive to its unique local environment. The architecture provides not only a functional lab space, but also allows the user to experience dynamic space in a dynamic environment.

A experiência da literatura brasileira tem no regionalismo um modo peculiar de representação literária. Este trabalho, portanto, busca compreender de que maneira o romance O Cabeleira, publicado em 1876, pelo escritor cearense Franklin Távora, procura representar a realidade do Brasil da segunda metade do século XIX. Na perspectiva do projeto nacionalista de Távora, conhecido como Literatura do Norte, o autor pretendeu com essa obra mostrar os dilemas, as contradições e os problemas sociais existentes nas províncias. No primeiro momento, acompanhamos brevemente a trajetória familiar e o contexto social e político no qual o escritor estava inserido, bem como algumas formulações sobre o regionalismo pitoresco; em seguida, nós nos apoiamos nas concepções de sistema literário brasileiro, fornecidas por Antonio Candido, para entendermos o contexto da tradição regionalista da qual Franklin Távora faz parte; por fim, associamos a transformação do protagonista à construção estética da narrativa, considerando os aspectos românticos e naturalistas que a compõem e as suas implicações para a representação artística da realidade n’O Cabeleira. _______________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT
The brazilian literature’s experience has in regionalism a peculiar way of literary representation. This work, ergo, seeks to understand in which way the novel O Cabeleira, published in 1876, by the cearense writer Franklin Távora, seeks to represent Brazil’s reality in the second half of the 19th century. In the perspective of Távora’s nationalist project, presented as Literatura do Norte (Northern Literature), the writer intended to show in O Cabeleira the dilemmas, the contradictions and the existent social issues in the provinces. At first, we briefly follow the familial path and the social and political context which the author was inserted into, as well as some formulations about the picturesque regionalism; next, we rely on the conceptions of brazilian literary system, supplied by Antonio Candido, so that we may understand the context of the regionalist tradition in which Franklin Távora is part of; lastly, we associate the protagonist’s transformation to the narrative's aesthetical construction, regarding the romantic and naturalist aspects that compose the narrative and its involvements to the artistic representation of reality in O Cabeleira.

Abstract:
La premiere partie de la these est une analyse de la situation politique et diplomatique americaine au moment ou eclate la deuxieme guerre mondiale, apres la reorientation amorcee par le president roosevelt lors du discours de chicago du 5 octobre 1937, qui marqua le debut de l'abandon de la politique isolationniste des etats-unis. La deuxieme partie conduit a l'armistice de juin 1940, avec comme evenement majeur l'effondrement de la france que le president roosevelt considerera desormais comme une puissance de deuxieme ordre. Les rapports entre washington et, respectivement, vichy et la france libre forment la matiere de la troisieme partie qui aboutit a la rupture des relations entre les etats-unis et vichy, le 9 novembre 1942, a la suite du debarquement allie en afrique francaise du nord (afn). Apres cette date et jusqu'a sa mort, le 12 avril 1945, roosevelt se retrouvera face a de gaulle : leurs rapports difficiles font l'objet de la derniere partie. Apres avoir ecarte le mouvement gaulliste des operations d'afn, les etats-unis traiteront d'abord avec darlan, le numero deux de vichy, jusqu'a sa disparition, puis avec le general giraud contre la france libre. De gaulle s'etant tout de meme impose comme chef inconteste de la resistance et du gouvernement provisoire de la republique francaise, roosevelt s'obstinera a refuser d'admettre cette realite, considerant que le general n'etait pas elu. Il ne reconnaitra de jure le gouvernement provisoire que le 23 octobre 1944, sous la pression de ses allies et de ses conseillers. Malgre cela, le president s'opposera a la presence de de gaulle a la conference de yalta. Par son entetement a conduire une diplomatie irrealiste visant a se poser en arbitre des destinees de la france, roosevelt fit naitre dans ce pays, et c'est la son echec majeur, un sentiment de defiance envers les etats-unis, qui devait s'averer par la suite prejudiciable aux relations entre les deux nations
The first part of this dissertation is a review of the american diplomatic and political situation at the beginning of world war ii, after president roosevelt, in his chicago address of october 5th, 1937, had reoriented the policy of isolationism, hitherto pursued by the us, towards its eventual abandonment. The second part leads up to the franco-german armistice of june 1940 which caused roosevelt to regard france as a second-rate nation. Us policy towards vichy and free france respectively is the subject of the third part, which ends with the severance of diplomatic relations between the us and the vichy government on november 9th, 1942. Thereafter, roosevelt and de gaulle were left face to face ; relations between them form the theme of the last part, which ends up with the death of the president on april 12th, 1945. After keeping de gaulle uninformed of the operations in north africa, the united states made a deal with darlan, petain's former deputy at vichy ; then, after his death, the american government championed general giraud. When de gaulle proved to be the unquestioned head of the french resistance and of the provisional government of the french republic, roosevelt refused to face up to the fact, considering that de gaulle did not have a mandate from the french people. He waited until october 23rd, 1944, before recognizing de jure the provisional gouvernment of france as a result of pressure from his allies and advisors. However, he later refused to invite de gaulle to the yalta conference. By his stubbornness in pursuing an unrealistic diplomacy aimed at becoming the arbiter of france's destiny, roosevelt initiated a feeling of defiance towards the unites states in france which certainly was his major failure, as it was later to prove detrimental to relations between the two nations

Abstract:
Between 1939 and 1945 the Federal Bureau of Investigation, headed by J. Edgar Hoover, monitored the political activities of President Franklin Roosevelt's anti- interventionist foreign policy critics. Hoover, whose position as FBI director was tenuous within the left-of-center Roosevelt administration, catered to the president's political and policy interests to preserve his position and to expand FBI authority. In his pragmatic effort to service administration political goals, Hoover employed illegal wiretaps, informers, collected derogatory information, conducted investigations that had the potential to discredit the anti -interventionists, forwarded political intelligence to administration officials, and coordinated some activity with British intelligence. This all occurred within a crisis atmosphere created with the onset of the Second World War, and it was this political dynamic that permitted Hoover to successfully cultivate his relationship with President Roosevelt. In the process, the administration's otherwise legitimate foreign policy opposition was regarded as subversive and some anti -interventionists' civil liberties were violated through intensive FBI scrutiny of their political dissention. Moreover, the FBI's surveillance marks the origins of the FBI's role in the later national security state. Among those targets examined in this dissertation include Charles Lindbergh, the America First Committee, notable anti- interventionist senators and congressmen, the anti -interventionist press, and other prominent individuals who advocated American isolation from foreign war.

Abstract:
The 800 and 900 blocks of West Franklin Street, Richmond , Virginia were developed during the period of 1855 to 1925. As a result, manifested on these two blocks are important examples of late-Victorian and early twentieth-century American architecture. The predominance of the Second Empire and Richardsonian Romanesque styles indicate that this neighborhood experienced the most intensive building campaign during the 1880s and 1890s. This development corresponds to the period of economic recovery experienced in Richmond after the Reconstruction. Though Richmond suffered economically due to its geographical and political position during and immediately following the Civil War (1861-65), the post-Reconstruction economic recovery made possible financial success for a small number of enterprising Richmonders. Tobacco, trade, and manufacturing were the leading occupations of the financially successful. The original residents of West Franklin Street and their homes are evidence of this prosperity. Roughly one quarter made their fortunes in tobacco, one quarter in manufacturing, one quarter were merchants of one type of another, and the balance were independent business men, lawyers, stockbrokers, and real estate developers. These successful Richmonders chose to erect monuments to their success in the homes they commissioned from local and nationally known architects, builders, and craftspeople. This thesis charts the pattern of social, aesthetic, and architectural development by identifying the patrons, architects, contractors, and craftspeople who built the 800 and 900 blocks of West Franklin Street. The 800 and 900 blocks of West Franklin Street, comprised in a National Register Historic District, are now largely owned by the Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU). In 1925, the school began acquiring the old residences and remodelling them into dormitories and classrooms, eventually acquiring 34 out of 42 of the extant original buildings. Consequently, VCU now owns a major intact collection of architectural and historical merit. Though VCU has commissioned master plans and architectural guidelines to guide the development of the growing university, there are no specific guidelines for the maintenance and treatment of the historic buildings. The adoption of and adherence to a university-wide preservation plan is proposed in order to protect this unique and important district.

Abstract:
Historians of American diplomatic history during the Roosevelt administration have long debated whether President Roosevelt tricked Americans into the Second World War. Historians have looked at the personalities of Roosevelt and his key advisors to see if a hidden agenda was followed. U.S.-French relations highlight this divide. Did Roosevelt conspire in the fall of France, as the conspiratorialists claim, or did he simply react? With most historians focusing on Roosevelt himself, few have examined the systemic causes of America's failure to aid France. This study investigates how Roosevelt's style of governance and administration affected American foreign policy toward France. It concludes that the system of foreign-policy-making Roosevelt established made the outcome of American policy toward France-in particular the fall of France in 1940-nearly inevitable.

Abstract:
Current scholarship on Miles Franklin emphasises the gaps and contradictions of a secretive and mysterious author. The eagerly awaited release of her private papers was marked by Paul Brunton's 2004 publication of her diaries, an edition that has been conceived and understood as a revelation of "the real Miles Franklin" (Lecture Title, State Library). This thesis disrupts the concept of a "real" Franklin by arguing that these diaries, in their manuscript form, give us more delay. Foregrounding the performative guises of the private diary subject, this thesis establishes that we are, and will always be, waiting for the real Miles Franklin to arrive. The insights of diary and textual theories illuminate Franklin, I will argue, as one who seeks the proliferative creativity of the anonymous author, and who would use her diary writing to escape definition within public discourse. Yet the tension between creativity and the daily enables us to see how potential is distorted into waiting in the surrogate space of these diaries, as Franklin seeks protection within the nostalgia of a national past and an Edenic vision of the future. This vantage point directs us to identify, as will be seen, the vulnerabilities and instabilities of this space for Franklin, as it implicates her in the dilemma of her times. In this way, we can ascertain how she holds the line as a "spotless virgin" (3 May 1942) in her resistance to the gender performances of new women, her refusal to be defined as one thing or another. This resistance to imitation will also be analysed as it plays out via the curse of Franklin's self-repetition in an Australia that waits, disrupting her attempts to achieve anonymity as the embodiment of a national literary tradition. In her avoidance of being a private text to be read, Franklin promotes herself, I will contend, as a "world classic" (Franklin Furphy 3) author of and in these diaries, resisting the transition from the readerly to the modernist writerly text at a time of artistic revolution (Barthes S/Z 4). In illuminating Franklin's exposure to these very vulnerabilities as a subject-in-process, in a document intended for posthumous publication, this thesis will establish that she has made a courageous contribution to the complexities of a particular moment within Australian modernity

Resumo: Esta tese baseia-se no estudo e análise do conjunto de romances de Franklin Távora, denominado por ele de Literatura do Norte. O principal objetivo é mostrar em que medida o autor se vale da cultura popular, das memórias e da cor local nortistas como instrumentos para fundar história e literatura nacionais. Nesta perspectiva, apresentamos as principais discussões sobre folclore e nacionalidade, as idéias fundamentais da Escola de Recife e a interação do romancista com o pensamento da ¿geração de 70¿ do século XIX. Além de focalizar a trajetória intelectual do escritor, examinamos o seu conhecido embate com José de Alencar, travado nas Cartas a Cincinato, e os métodos de composição que foram sendo sedimentados na sua prosa de ficção, ao longo de suas críticas e no seu projeto literário. Por fim, apresentamos as análises dos cinco romances da Literatura do Norte: O Cabeleira, O Matuto, Lourenço, Um Casamento no arrabalde e O Sacrifício

Abstract:
Neste trabalho examinamos a concepção de sociedade civil no pensamento social e político de Benjamin Franklin, cujas idéias exerceram grande influência na formação da mentalidade do homem do Novo Mundo. Essa mentalidade inaugura um novo modo de conceber a vida em sociedade, exaltando tudo o que se opõe aos valores da velha ordem. Contra o princípio da honra, os títulos de nobreza e a posição social dos indivíduos, ela exalta a virtude republicana, celebra o trabalho e reclama o respeito à dignidade humana, intrínseca a todos os homens independente da sua condição de nascimento. Não por acaso, virtude e trabalho aparecem como categorias centrais no pensamento de Benjamin Franklin. Longe de degradante, ele entendia o trabalho como energia vital do homem e expressão de sua liberdade. Além de ser um meio para obtenção da riqueza, o trabalho servia também para promover a virtude na medida em que libertava o homem da condição de pobreza, servilismo e dependência da boa vontade dos outros. A tese aí era de que o homem não pode ser considerado verdadeiramente livre se não for, ao mesmo tempo, politicamente livre e economicamente independente. Nesse sentido, sua concepção de sociedade se apresenta articulada com princípios que remontam a uma antiga tradição. É principalmente no ideal da civitas libera, ou Estado livre, que ela se inspira. Esse ideal havia predominado na Roma republicana de Tito Lívio, foi revivido e adaptado no renascimento italiano, sobretudo por Machiavel, e retomado no século XVII pelos defensores da causa republicana inglesa. No século XVIII, essa influência chegou até as colônias inglesas na América e teve em Franklin um dos seus principais representantes.
In this work we inspect the conception of civil society in the social and political ideas of Benjamin Franklin, which exerted large influence on the mentality constitution of the New World´s man. This mentality had initiated a new way to conceive the life in society exalting all that opposed the values of the old order. Against the principle of honor, the nobility titles, and the individual social position it exalts the republican virtue, celebrates the work, and claims respect for human dignity inherent to all men, not depending on their birth condition. Not by chance, virtue and work appears like central categories in the ideas of Benjamin Franklin. Far from conceiving it as shameful, he comprehended the work as the man´s vital energy and expression of his freedom. More than a way to obtain wealth, the work also attended to promote the virtue once it released man from the poverty and servility condition as much as from the dependence of the others good will. This theses utters that man couldn´t be considered free if he wasn´t at the same time politically free and economic independent. In this way, his conception of society seems articulated with doctrines that ascend an ancient tradition. It is mainly inspired by the ideal of civitas libera or the Free State. This ideal had predominated in the Republican Rome of Tito Livio, and then was relived and adapted by the Italian Renascence, mainly by Machiavelli, and was recovered by the defenders of the English republican cause, in the seventeenth century. This influence came to the English colonies in America in the eighteenth century, and it had in Franklin one of its main representatives.

Abstract:
Maternally-derived hormones are known to influence the growth and development of offspring. The differential deposition of these maternally-derived hormones into egg yolk is one way by which females can alter and impact their chicks? survival. Yolk constituents, especially testosterone, have been described for a wide variety of species. However, few studies have focused on multiple maternally-derived hormones regulated by independent axis in the endocrine system, these of which have mainly focused on corticosterone and testosterone. We determined within and among female variation in testosterone and triiodothyronine concentrations in egg yolks of two free-living Franklin?s gull (Leucophaeus pipixcan) populations. We found that testosterone, not triiodothyronine, concentrations increased within the clutch with the third laid egg having significantly higher concentrations than the first laid egg. We also found that both testosterone and triiodothyronine concentrations increase within the breeding season with late season clutches having significantly higher hormone concentrations than early season clutches.
